What I’m about to share with you here is… kind of fringe. Like, “Edward Snowden” fringe.Hopefully, that got your attention.
For
some years now, the hacker, privacy, and journalism communities have
all been debating, discussing, and using the tools I’m about to share
with you in this installment. These tools are used not only to lock down
your security and anonymity on the known internet, but also to access
the portions of the internet that are normally hidden — “The Dark Web.”
Despite their usefulness, I haven’t really seen information about these
tools shared with the general public in a straightforward,
easy-to-understand way. I think it’s worth changing that; while most of
us don’t need the same high-privacy, high-security tools that confidential informants, journalists, and whistleblowers use, we should all know about these tools in case the time comes when we actually need them. more
